“…All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and the Holy Spirit: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen”

Matthew 28:18-20

Welcome to the Collins Discipleship Institute Resource Library

You will find below an ever-increasing range of discipleship materials which are intended to help you to become a more effective disciple of Jesus Christ and a better disciple-maker.

All issues stem from the question of worship.  In this book The Issue of Worship, Bishop Collins leads readers past songs, services, and various forms of religious activity in order to discover the deeper biblical significance of worship.  This book shows that worship is ultimately concerned with who occupies the throne in our hearts, covering the subjects of creation and the fall as well as redemption, eternity, and revival.  People are encouraged to look at their own priorities, face their misplaced devotion, put Christ in His proper position, and discover the way in which genuine worship leads to surrender, obedience, transformation, and revival.  Worship is not just something that we perform; it is the life we were made to live.  This is a required course (8 weeks) for completion of the School of Worship.

The official The Issue of Worship Companion Workbook transforms the truths of the book into a practical journey of biblical study, spiritual formation, personal reflection, and daily obedience.  Designed for individuals, small groups, and leadership teams, each session helps participants examine the throne of the heart, identify competing loyalties, deepen their understanding of Scripture, and translate true worship into everyday life.  More than a study guide, this workbook is an invitation to return to God, restore His place, realign your life, and respond with new obedience.  Because when worship is restored, lives are transformed and personal obedience becomes corporate revival.  This is a required course (8 weeks) for completion of the School of Worship.
